Books By Author Richard Riding

This is a photographic record of aviation in Britain, 1940 to 1949. The photographs were taken by E. J. Riding who spent his entire working life in the aviation industry, but was killed in a flying accident. During his short life, he worked as an aircraft engineer, professional photographer, draughtsman and aero-modeller and as an aviation writer.

Richard Riding advocates that the key to effective learning is not complex management systems, but good quality teaching. With this aim in sight, he incorporates recent psychological developments to present new approaches.

This volume reviews and integrates research on style differences in learning behaviour and describes the "cognitive styles analysis" which provides a simple and effective method of assessing style in children and adults.
